Dirty business: The livestock farms polluting the UK
Such an occurrence is far from a one-off case. A Bureau investigation has found pig, poultry and dairy farms are releasing harmful pollution once a week on average in England and Wales.
We have documented dozens of instances of manure pouring into waterways, carcasses being illicitly dumped and noxious fumes being emitted, among other infractions - all of which can seriously damage ecological systems, and are often against the law.
